Cryptic TV Shows

Cryptic TV Shows

This quiz round features 20 cryptic clues to be deciphered to give the titles of 20 well known TV shows. For example, the cryptic clue "Dad still" can be translated into "Pop Idol" (Pop Idle).

All of the TV shows are well known, so everyone should get full enjoyment of this quiz round.

There are a few cryptic clues that are fairly straightforward to get everyone started, but there are also some that are likely to take a great deal of puzzling over, so this quiz round should keep everyone entertained for a while.

It is recommended that these cryptic clues are used in a quiz as a handout round. For more information on handout rounds and our recommended use for them in quizzes click here

If you buy this handout round, we will give you access to pdf files you can download. Two of these will be for the main handout sheet - one as illustrated above, and one in a more plain format. The third sheet will contain the answers. You probably already have everything you need to access and use these rounds in your quiz, but you might want to check our requirements page to make sure.

Please note that this handout round also appears in Weekly Quiz 1. If you would prefer to purchase our pre-compiled full weekly quizzes, then click here, where you can find quizzes with a handout round, 2 rounds on general subjects, a specialist subject round, a connections round, an initial letter link round, and a stick or twist round, as well as professionally designed answer sheets and full instructions on how to run your quiz.
